High ceilings, bay features and bright open-plan living
Separate utility room and four-piece Jack-and-Jill bathroom

Wider area flagged as higher deprivation — consider rental implications
Set within a striking blonde sandstone former telephone exchange, this large one-bedroom ground-floor apartment combines period character with contemporary living. High ceilings, bay-window proportions and an open-plan kitchen/living space create a bright, airy interior, while a separate utility room and a four-piece Jack-and-Jill bathroom add practical convenience. The 668 sq ft footprint is generous for a one-bed and suits buyers seeking comfortable West End living or a stylish pied-à-terre.
Location is a key strength: less than five minutes’ walk to Byres Road, Ashton Lane and Glasgow University, with Hillhead Subway and Waitrose nearby. Communal areas are finished to a high standard, giving a hotel-style arrival and secure entry — attractive for professionals, students, academics and downsizers who value convenience and walkable amenities.
Buyers should note a few material points: the property has an EPC rating of D and sits in Council Tax Band E (above-average running costs). The wider area classification flags higher deprivation indices, which may be relevant to some purchasers and for rental market considerations. Overall this freehold flat offers strong location, generous space and distinctive period appeal, balanced against modest energy performance and ongoing local area factors.
